Problem

Difficulty in adding or removing menu items in the horizontal menu bar

Code for child template is long and slows down load time

Fixed width of website leaves too much unused space on either side of content area

Not responsive for modern large screen sizes

Image slider is not wide enough for most banner images

Not enough sidebars on either side to add extra information

Above the fold area is wasted with a large header section

Content section is not wide enough

Proposed solution

The present site uses the CMS (Content Management System) of WordPress, one of the most popular CMS available, and is hosted by Bluehost one of the top three hosting companies for websites using WordPress

Recommended Strategy

Three templates are selected for a final selection of one to be installed

A new site using the new template is produced importing all the posts, categories and media from the existing site

a local server is used for implementation, testing and consultation

or the site is constructed using the available host, but using a multi-site installation

What is Content Management System?

The Content Management System (CMS) is a software which keeps all the data of your content (such as text, photos, music, documents etc) which will be available on your website. A CMS helps in editing, publishing and modifying the content of the website.

What is a Content Management System?

A content management system is software that allows you to create and manage webpages easily by separating the creation of your content from the mechanics required to present it on the web.

In this site, the content is stored in a database. The look and feel are created by a template. Joomla! brings together the template and your content to create web pages.

Logging in

To login to your site use the user name and password that were created as part of the installation process. Once logged-in you will be able to create and edit articles and modify some settings.

Creating an article

Once you are logged-in, a new menu will be visible. To create a new article, click on the “Submit Article” link on that menu.

The new article interface gives you a lot of options, but all you need to do is add a title and put something in the content area. To make it easy to find, set the state to published.

You can edit an existing article by clicking on the edit icon (this only displays to users who have the right to edit).

Template, site settings, and modules

The look and feel of your site is controlled by a template. You can change the site name, background colour, highlights colour and more by editing the template settings. Click the “Template Settings” in the user menu.

The boxes around the main content of the site are called modules. You can modify modules on the current page by moving your cursor to the module and clicking the edit link. Always be sure to save and close any module you edit.

You can change some site settings such as the site name and description by clicking on the “Site Settings” link.

More advanced options for templates, site settings, modules, and more are available in the site administrator.

Site and Administrator

Your site actually has two separate sites. The site (also called the front end) is what visitors to your site will see. The administrator (also called the back end) is only used by people managing your site. You can access the administrator by clicking the “Site Administrator” link on the “User Menu” menu (visible once you login) or by adding /administrator to the end of your domain name. The same user name and password are used for both sites.
